英文摘要 | We investigated the thermal thresholds to seed germination and the variations in abscisic acid (ABA) levels and oxidative metabolism during seed dormancy-breaking and germination in two palm species with differences in desiccation tolerance. We used Mauritia flexuosa (buriti palm, desiccation-sensitive seeds) from swampy habitats (Veredas) and Attalea speciosa (babassu, desiccation-tolerant seeds) from the transition zone between the forest and semi-arid region (drained soils). Germination was evaluated at 15-40 degrees C after dormancy-breaking (operculum removal). At optimal temperature for both species (30 degrees C), embryos were sampled in distinct germination phases - dry, imbibed, after operculum removal and at early germination - and used for quantifying ABA and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content, antioxidant enzyme activities and for histolocalization of superoxide anion (O-2(-)). Seeds of M. flexuosa germinated only in a narrow temperature range (25-35 degrees C), while A. speciosa seeds germinated between 15 and 40 degrees C. After operculum removal, reduced ABA levels in embryos of M. flexuosa were accompanied by constant H2O2 levels, while in A. speciosa, similar levels of ABA and H2O2 were maintained throughout all germination phases. The presence of O-2(-) was restricted to the haustorium, and an increase in O-2(-) accumulation was observed in both species after operculum removal. Similarities were noted between both species regarding enzyme activities; however, the activities were higher in embryos from M. flexuosa. The presence of O-2(-) only in the haustorium indicates that this region of the embryo is an active structure following imbibition and is involved in germination itself, not just functioning in reserve mobilization. |
